Feldman Automotive Group is expanding with the acquisition of a dealership in Livonia, a Detroit suburb.

Livonia Chrysler Jeep has been renamed Feldman Chrysler Jeep of Livonia following the acquisition, which closed Aug. 1. 

Feldman now owns and operates 21 automotive and RV/Airstream dealerships across Michigan, Ohio and Indiana, including six with actor Mark Wahlberg in Cleveland and Columbus, Ohio.

“Our mission at Feldman Automotive is to provide a first-class buying and customer service experience at all our dealerships, and our team is excited to provide more brands to Livonia and the surrounding communities,” Jay Feldman, chairman and CEO of Feldman Automotive Group, said in a news release.
